The 2025 Speedway Grand Prix season is the 31st season of the Speedway Grand Prix era, and will decide the 80th FIM Speedway World Championship. It is the fourth series promoted by Discovery Sports Events.
For the first time Great Britain will host two rounds of the championship. The original schedule showed the National Speedway Stadium in Manchester joining the flagship Principality Stadium in Cardiff on the calendar, but the Cardiff round was subsequently cancelled and replaced with a second grand prix in Manchester. There will be eight other rounds, with Poland's allocation reduced from four to three.
Bartosz Zmarzlik is the defending champion having won the title in 2024. He will be aiming to equal Tony Rickardsson and Ivan Mauger's record of six world championships.
The choice of the wildcard riders caused significant controversy due to the fact that 2021 Word Champion Artem Laguta and Emil Sayfutdinov were once again omitted, as was 2022 world runner-up Leon Madsen. The 2025 event would be the fourth consecutive year that Zmarzlik would be missing some of his strongest rivals.
